About EmLedger

Built by a CPA who got tired of paying per entity

EmLedger comes from a simple frustration: keeping more than one set of books shouldn't get more expensive every time you add an entity. So a CPA who lives that problem built the tool he wished he could buy.

Short answer

EmLedger was founded by James Wax, CPA, who serves as CFO of a family business. He spent years in public accounting before taking on the books across several entities, where he hit the same wall anyone juggling more than one set of books knows: QuickBooks Desktop meant constantly switching company files, and every cloud alternative he found charged per entity. EmLedger is the multi-entity accounting software he needed and couldn't buy: real double-entry for every entity, all in one place, at one tier price.

Why we exist

Every entity in one place, at one price

EmLedger is multi-entity accounting software built on real double-entry. It started from one conviction: a business that runs multiple LLCs, subsidiaries, or properties deserves to manage every entity's books in one place, under one login, without paying a separate subscription for each.

Every legacy tool charges you more the moment you add an entity, and still makes you log in and out of separate accounts to keep each one's books straight. We think that's backwards. So we priced it flat and put every entity under one login.

A note from the founder

James Wax, CPA

Founder, EmLedger

I'm a CPA. I spent the first part of my career in public accounting, in tax and audit, before coming home as CFO of our family business, where I still serve today.

Keeping the books across several entities, I lived in QuickBooks Desktop, constantly switching company files. Recording a single intercompany transaction meant opening one file, booking one side, closing it, opening another, and booking the other. When I went looking to move to the cloud, every option I found charged per entity. Totaled across all of them, that would have skyrocketed our accounting software costs, for software that still made intercompany a chore.

So I built it. EmLedger is the software I wished I had: real double-entry for every entity in one place, intercompany transactions without the file-swapping, and one flat price instead of a bill that climbs every time you add an entity.
